    Yes, you are welcome.

    This is the clubs Social Mission Statement taken from the Celtic website:

    "SOCIAL MISSION STATEMENT

    Introduction

    Celtic Football Club is legendary and as with most legends as much myth as fact surrounds its history and what the Club stands for today. The Social Mission Statement aims to simply define what the Club stands for and seeks to promote within society.
    History

    Celtic Football Club was founded in 1888. Its principal founder was a Marist Brother named Walfrid. The Club had two principal aims: The first aim was to raise funds to provide food for the poor of the East End of Glasgow, an area of the City that was greatly impoverished and had a high rate of infant mortality. Within the East End was a large Irish community and friction was growing between the native Glaswegians and the new influx of Irish. Brother Walfrid saw the need for social integration and his vision was a football club that Scottish and Irish, Protestants and Catholics alike could support. A new football club would be a vehicle to bring the communities together and this was the second aim. The Marist brother sought for the Club to have both a Scottish and Irish identity and hence, the Club’s name “Celtic” came about, representing a bridge of cultures across the Irish Sea.
    Current Positioning of Celtic Football Club

    Celtic Football Club is a Scottish football club with proud Irish links. The primary business of Celtic is as a football club. It is run on a professional business basis with no political agenda. However, the Club has a wider role and the responsibility of being a major Scottish social institution promoting health, well-being and social integration.
    Who is Celtic Football Club for?

    Celtic Football Club is for people who want to support a football club that strives for excellence in Scotland and in Europe, is proud of its history, supportive of its local community and seeks to support the following aims: “To maximise all opportunities to disassociate the Club from sectarianism and bigotry of any kind. To promote Celtic as a Club for all people, regardless of gender, age, religion, race or ability.”
    Summary

    Celtic is a club for everyone who believes in football as a medium for healthy pleasure, entertainment and social integration. The Club always has been and always will simply aim to be the team of the people."​

    As far as I know you dont choose to support Celtic. You are born a Celtic Supporter.
    When im at a game with all the singing and noise or even watching it on TV, all the hairs on the back of your neck stand up - its an uncontrollable feeling- you feel celtic.
    Do you feel Celtic? If not you wont get it like the rest of us do.

    hope this dosent sound to harsh but by the time you can use a computer you should probabley know what team you like, i would say that you would need to be born into the hoops or at least be taught what we are all about at a young age because its a wee bit more than putting the ball into the net!

    This is going around in circles.

    If it was a wind up, it backfired spectacularly as Celtic fans dont discriminate because of race, religion or political background :50:
